Personalized Gifts Guide

Pet Gifts & Pet Memorials

What are good personalized pet gifts? Custom pet photo and pet name gifts like mugs, blankets and ornaments are the most popular, along with pet birthday party items, memorial keepsakes for a pet that has passed, and business cards for groomers and sitters.

Pet gifts work best when they're about one specific animal: their photo, their name, their quirks. Most of the designs here let you add your own pet photo.

We've also included memorial keepsakes for people who have lost a pet. If that's why you're here, we're sorry. A photo ornament or plaque can be a gentle way to remember them.

      Buying tips: what should I look for?

      • Use a bright, sharp photo where the pet's face fills most of the frame. Natural light works best.
      • For memorial gifts, include the pet's name and years, and keep the wording simple.
      • Mugs, magnets and ornaments are easy gifts for a pet owner; shirts are fun for 'dog dad' and 'cat mom' types.
      • Pet businesses (groomers, sitters, walkers) can use a matching card and sticker to look established.

      When to order: how early should I order?

      Photo gifts make good birthday, holiday and 'gotcha day' gifts. Memorial ornaments are often given within weeks of a loss or ahead of the first holidays without the pet.
